1. Preheat the oven to 220°C, fan oven 200°C, Gas Mark 6.

2. Cook the potatoes in lightly salted boiling water until tender.

3. Meanwhile, make 4 light incisions on the skin of the mackerel. Season with salt and pepper on the flesh side.

4. For the crust, place the Maille mustard with red and green peppers, white wine and a touch of Espelette chili, bread, garlic, parsley, paprika and Olive Oil in a food processor. Season, then process to a coarse texture.

5. Arrange the mackerel fillets on a lightly oiled baking tray, flesh side up. Arrange the crumb mixture on top of the mackerel fillets. Place the tray in the oven. It will only take 6-8 minutes to cook the fish and form a crust.

6. When the potatoes are cooked, drain in a colander and place back in the pan and mash or pass through a vegetable mouli. Add the saffron-infused milk and a drizzle of olive oil. Mix well and keep hot.
